Mine does have the death grip issue but I don't normally hold it that way and my phone is naked atm. I plan on getting full body invisible protection plus a case so hopefully won't have issues. I must say I am pleased with even 1 bar call performance, I can clearly hear the other person and I sound fine to them. This is a huge upgrade from the original iPhone. I do wish 3G was more reliable though, that is an AT&T issue however.

Yup, absolutely love mine! Still now, every time I tub it on I'm stunned by the display. It's very quick, it has an excellent and very usable camera for a phone, sound quality is very good through headphones, multitasking I think works brilliantly (not iPhone 4 specific I know), GPS is a lot better, it looks fantastic, even the gyro is great (real racing is fantastic with it). So overall top notch!

I can replicate the antenna issue, but in actual use it has caused me zero issues as I dont hold it in a way where I touch that area. And now I get a free case for it. Spot on!

I'm a first time iPhone owner and i couldn't be happier with my iPhone 4. It does have the signal issue, but frankly, i could care less. No proximity sensor problems or any other problems for that matter. I bought a case, the one problem is resolved, and all is good in the world

First time iPhone owner.....and Yes....I Love It....but I could LOVE IT More.

Love lots of the features it has, and it's capabilities (having come from Crackberry Land), and LOVE the display. But could be further enamoured with the phone if the Battery life were a bit longer (I realise it's supposed to be better than previous iPhones.... as mentioned.... came from the Dark Side....so comparing battery life between those two.)

Have noticed the signal drop, but only when the corner rests on my hand/palm whilst typing....but got myself a protective case, and all is good. So no REAL complaints.

Will I bring it back? No
Would I recommend the phone? YES
Will I take up Apple on getting (another) free case? YES (not a bumper though...I prefer the protective case....and don't want to have to take the bumper off every night to park/charge it on my docking station.)

P.S. Have had some niggles with Proximity Sensor, but no biggie, and am sure that it will get sorted out soon enough.

There are countless threads about issues and people who are unhappy with their purchase, so what's the harm in a few threads about people that are pleased with the product?

Edit: I have an iPhone 4 and overall I am very pleased. I can make the signal go down using the so called 'death grip', but I tested this on my 3G and can do the same thing. I haven't had any dropped calls or problems with the proximity sensor. The only other phones I would consider is an HTC or a Blackberry - I've had both in the past and they served me well. However, my iPhone gives me every feature and function that I need and I don't believe there is a phone that could compare to this (this is my subjective view and not a statement made on behalf of the entire population).

I would not trade mine for any other phone out there right now. I thumbed a few android phones today at BB and Wal Mart, and they seem like cheap plastic toys compared to the work of art that is the iPhone 4

Did anyone feel as if Steve Jobbs was giving us a lecture, kind of like an angry father whose trying not to lose his proverbial ****. I felt ashamed and sorry whilst listening to it.

Yeah, I listened to Leo LaPorte today too... btw, I have never felt ashamed while listening to a tech press conference. But I'm an adult with real problems and responsibilities, so there is that while perspective thing...
